BJP condemns sacked BSF jawan's remark against PM Modi

NEW DELHI: BJP on Monday said the controversial clip purportedly showing sacked BSF trooper Tej Bahadur Yadav whose nomination from

Varanasi Lok Sabha seat

was cancelled, as saying that he could kill Prime Minister Narendra Modi if given Rs 50 crore, "exposes" the true colours of the opposition parties.


"We are stunned by statements of

SP

candidate Tej Bahadur Yadav. He was fielded by SP from Varanasi, his candidature has been nullified for various reasons. We can see now see on TV how he's telling a group that he's willing to hatch a plot to assassinate PM Modi for Rs 50 crore," said BJP spokesperson GVL Narsimha Rao.

"The fact that he was sought to be drafted in as a candidate by SP, it really stuns us. We condemn it, we expect all agencies to take note of this threat," he said.
